Re: Coming from C++ and RealBasic

Mark, Thank you for your thoughtful reply. Most of my applications involve databases. I have some standalone apps that (when I using Real Studio), use SQLite. On multi-user apps I user MySQL, though I've been trying to polish my PostgreSQL skills. To be honest, I haven't found anything that is even ...

Hi Ernest, Just wondering how you are coming along with LiveCode? I also have some experience with Real Studio, and while I like it a lot, it seems that LiveCode might be a faster coding environment.

Re: RealBasic to Revolution Questions Questions...

Simon, Thank you for your thoughtful reply. The applications I currently write are all database apps. I am wondering how connecting to a database in RunRev compares to doing so in RealBasic.
